System Configurations


System Configuration Overview

When you login to Quotient, you will notice that the side navigation bar has 3 sections:

  1. General
  2. Settings
  3. Documentation

These sections have been carefully designed to make it easy for you to navigate through Quotient. For this user manual section, we will focus on how the Settings work.

All screenshots in this documentation have labels bordered in a rectangle with a number. When you see references like Leave Types(1), we are referring to label 1 in the screenshot.
